Sold TNA 43. All gone. We've touched the top.
DJ 10341, S&P 1105.


Now waiting to see if we can close above 1100 and stay or pull back..

Getting ready to short and jump to bear share if market wants to reverse. biggrin.gif

Update (Market Closed): 5:10am
Dow 10291.26 +44.29 +0.43%
Nasdaq 2166.90 +15.82 +0.74%
S&P 500 1098.51 +5.50 +0.50%

I haven't jumped onto the bear train or going short yet.

The bulls rushed to towards the end but not yet able to break thru SP 1100 yet.
They will try again next trading day. biggrin.gif

I think they may break thru and pop a leg up and pull back from there. laugh.gif

i heard people said that you should buy a good stock, wait for it to grow, release it after a few years to earn.

but i think this very seldom happened in US stock, which mostly speculation.

the price is not based on the quality of the company.

C, with "too big to fail" theory, should gain in long term, accordingly, seeing that it began to have earning..

There are actually a LOT of good companies in US that are still undervalue but they are difficult to spot.

Those who are fundamentalist stock pickers, they'll know very well how to look deep into the company balance sheet and business plans. However, business environment changes all the time. Therefore, "good" is relative nowadays. It all depends on how those companies plan to execute their growth plans.

If you look at "C" balance sheet now, it sucks big time. It's forward looking statement also sucks. Apparently no idea when they're going to repay the TARP. People now are buying into C because it is "Too Big To Fail".

True, but how about BAC? also too "big" to fail? They are the same page with C, just because they are way bigger?

Even W.Buffet did not inject in C, BAC..

Hard call to dump C now.

Found that J2t is not bad overall, improved since last time. Only "big" problem is Java based streaming quote make the CPU utilized over 50%. Ur PC/Lappy fan will try to cool down the CPU.

Tips : use CPUFan idle software.

I use TD Ameritrade. Same here.. never fails me even in most volatile days.
Super fast web site and fast execution.

Then, of course, I access it through my US VPN connection. brows.gif

By the way, tonight.. I may turn bearish now that we are near the top. laugh.gif

Yes I have the same problem. CPU utilization >50% due to the platform. I send a complain to them. Waiting for their response.
